Chapter 17 The Scholar Husband's Desperate Need for a Son (16)



Colorful sachets are a common sight around Chu Yuan.

On the body, on the bed, on the gauze curtains...

Although Chu Ping wasn't that naive, and most of the sachets weren't embroidered by her own hands, habits are a terrible thing. The types of dried flowers in the sachets were almost identical to those Chu Ping used herself, and the fragrances were naturally very similar as well.

Chu Yuan's eyes reddened. "I thought that my three miscarriages were all due to my carelessness and my bad luck, but I never expected that it was all my sister's careful planning."

You're hoping I won't be able to carry on the Song family line, so you can seize the opportunity.

"Chu Ping, how cruel you are!"

To make the performance convincing, Chu Yuan cried uncontrollably, filled with sadness and despair.

Madam Chu's heart was breaking. She reached out, picked up a sachet, smelled it, and took a few steps back in disbelief.

Chu Ping remained unmoved and stubborn, pointing at Chu Yuan and laughing loudly, "Haha, serves you right! You deserve it! Who told you to steal my man? You don't deserve to have his child!"

Under the window, Madam Song Kang and Song Xiu'er listened with their eyes practically popping out of their sockets.

Such a thing actually happened?

Madam Song Kang could no longer sit still and rushed in: "Fine! So it turns out that my Song family is short of members, and it's all the Chu family's doing! Chu Yuan and Chu Ping are both troublemakers. I'm going to make Yin'er divorce her and stay away from your family's scourge!"

Before long, Song Tangyin was also called over.

No matter how much Song Kangshi and Song Xiuer plotted against him, he refused to divorce his wife.

He felt that Chu Yuan was perfect in every way now.

Even if she can't have children, she's still the best; no one else can compare to her even with a single finger.

The final result was that Madam Chu took Chu Ping away and forbade her from ever setting foot in the Song residence again.

Chu Ping was naturally unwilling, and tearfully begged Song Tangyin for help, hoping for his final pity.

Song Tangyin didn't even bother to look at her. "A vicious woman like you, who is as heartless as a snake and even harmed her own sister, I, Song Tangyin, wouldn't give you a second glance even if I were all alone."

Chu Ping's dream shattered. She clutched her head and shook it frantically, crying, "No, no, no, I don't believe it! You're not my brother-in-law! You're not!"

Madam Chu was so ashamed that she immediately decided to take Chu Ping away, not even waiting until tomorrow.

Chu Yuan saw them off.

Chu Ping screamed at her like a madwoman, but Madam Chu ordered her servants to tie her hands and feet and gag her.

To avoid bringing shame to the Chu family.

"Mother, let's go back and not tell Father yet. He has such a bad temper, who knows what he might do."

Chu Yuan: Speak up, hurry up and speak, then she'll have completed her mission!

Madam Chu was a clear-headed person. Upon hearing this, she firmly shook her head. "No, your father also bears responsibility for producing such an unfilial daughter in the Chu family. He needs to know. Yuan'er, you should live your life in peace. In the future... your mother may not come often."

Chu Yuan hugged Madam Chu. This mother is perfect.

Sure enough, the system notified the next day that Task 2 was completed.

[Host, dear, since this is your first time completing a mission, the system has decided to give you half of your reward in advance: 500 points. You can browse the shop and add some necessary items; the system has a very comprehensive selection.]

Chu Yuan: "I suspect you're after my points!"

[Hey cutie, don't be so aggressive. Take a look, you might find something you need.]

Chu Yuan figured that since Song Tangyin had been called away by Song Kangshi and wouldn't be back for a while, she closed her eyes and started browsing the system.

One eye-catching prop immediately caught my eye: painless childbirth pills.

The product details are below; simply put, it allows for painless childbirth after consumption.

Chu Yuan had undergone in-vitro fertilization and natural childbirth, experiencing the most intense pain imaginable. Without hesitation, she immediately used 200 points to buy two babies.

She has to have two children in this world.

Thinking about it this way, I suddenly realized it wasn't worth it. I should have just had twins.

After a couple of quick searches, I was drawn to the postpartum recovery pills and spent another 200 points to buy two.

With only 100 points left, Chu Yuan quickly stopped her shopping spree, saving some points for emergencies.

The atmosphere inside Songhe Hall was heavy and oppressive.

For the first time, Madam Song was so composed. Song Tangyin had been sitting for an incense stick's time, and she still hadn't spoken.

“Mother…” Song Tangyin spoke first, mainly because he wanted to go back quickly to comfort Chu Yuan, and also to do unspeakable things with Chu Yuan.

Yesterday's experience was so delicious, I'm hooked.

But Song Kangshi stood up and interrupted her, saying, "Yin'er, come with me."

Song Kangshi brought her son to the ancestral hall. Song Tangyin subconsciously took incense, intending to offer incense to the ancestors of the Song family.

"Wait!" Madam Song Kang reached out to stop her. "Yin'er, tell your mother the truth, do you really not want the child anymore?"

Song Tangyin lowered her head, "No, it's just..."

"It's just that Chu Yuan can't give birth!" Song Kangshi got angry when she mentioned this daughter-in-law.

She was a fox spirit reincarnated, and she bewitched his perfectly good son so much that he didn't even care about having children.

Hearing Song Kangshi's obviously displeased tone, Song Tangyin frowned deeply. "Mother, why do you still have a problem with Yuan'er? You know, she didn't have any health problems before, but was harmed by someone. As long as she takes care of herself and I try harder, why should we have to worry about not having children?"

Madam Song scoffed, "That's just wishful thinking on your part. How do you know she can still have children after three miscarriages?"

"Then I can't divorce my wife just because of some uncertainty. Don't even think about it!"

"You're really going to drive me crazy!" Madam Song patted her chest in annoyance, but after a while, her expression miraculously softened.

“Yin’er, it’s not that your mother is forcing you. Our Song family has been poor farmers for three generations. It’s only with you that we have made something of ourselves and become an official. Are you really willing to have no successor and hand over such a large family business to others?”
